with wonderful shiny rounded leaves and everything in between. Charlotte makes lots of cuttings and swaps cuttings with friends, knowing the provenance of each plant. Indeed, almost all of the box came as cuttings from her previous garden. She has rescued plants that were about to end up in a skip down in the village. Can you believe that anyone would throw out a tree peony? And a table outside Charlotte’s studio, built as a result of a commission for a mural she took on down in the West Country, is a perfect place to sit and take in her collection of scented pelargoniums (reminiscent of her mother’s collection) and some great pots of succulents. One of my favourite areas – one of many – is what Charlotte called ‘child’s garden’ with a Victorian fern seat at one end and then a central border with a planting of tall verbascums combined with the soaring yellow umbellifer flowers of the parsnip, Ammi and another favourite of mine this time, Eryngium giganteum, or Miss Willmott’s Ghost, which draws in all manner of pollinating insects. Also there is that little treasure, Dianthus carthusianorum, the Carthusian Pink, with its slender stems and sparkling magenta flowers. There was also an old sink filled with pebbles, shells and a collection of sempervivums. As the years went on the garden continued to develop organically and Charlotte and Donald acquired more land and dug a pond. This was also a wedding present and integral to the garden’s layout as it came early on and they had a difficult task deciding where to put it. It is now surrounded by an area of wild flowers and lots of interesting trees. There is a sense of a borrowed landscape from the great trees that edge the garden such as Scots pines, Pinus radiata and Malus hupehensis, some grown from seedlings from the old ones in the Grange. Amongst all the other interesting trees and shrubs is a large specimen of Heptacodium miconioides AGM, also known as the Seven-sons flower of Zhejiang, which has the most extraordinary and distinctive wavy leaves which are large and curl downwards. The tree flowers in late summer into autumn and has seven scented flowers growing from the panicles at the end of its branches. Native to China, luckily it was reintroduced into the horticultural world before it became extinct in the wild in the 1980s. Shady areas are full of lovely native ferns, saxifrages, silver leaved pulmonarias and more plants than I could take in all in one go. I notice Rosa x odorata ‘Mutabilis’, grows in several parts of the garden. This year we have released ours from its life in a large pot and it has been rewarding us with a constant display of its extraordinary single flowers which change from orangey yellow to copper pink with a final display of red. Charlotte and Donald open their garden to the public through the National Gardens Scheme (NGS) and charities such as St. Michael’s Hospice. I recommend a visit so that you can see this enchanting topiary garden and its treasures for yourselves. You can also enjoy artworks by Charlotte Molesworth, Peter M Clarke and Colin Griffith, and explore the garden at Three Artists in a Topiary Garden 2022. It will run on Saturday 20th and Sunday 21st, Saturday 27th, Sunday 28th August and Bank Holiday Monday 29th August from 11am til 5pm. Entry will be free, with a jar for donations to local charities. Dogs on leads are welcome. Sue Whigham can be contacted on 07810 457948 for gardening advice and help in the sourcing and supply of interesting garden plants. Sempervivums Yellows and whites make for a pleasing colour combination in a border 99 priceless-magazines.com
